Description

Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope for High Temperature Analysis. Through the use of a high temperature stage in an environmental SEM, this project intends to develop a comprehensive capability for in situ high temperature scanning electron microscopy. This will enable analysis of material behaviour as a function of elevated temperature. As a result of the project, we expect to discover rare and anomalous microstructural phenomena in several classes of advanced materials. It is expected that this project will address microstructure-property-performance relationships in multiple multifunctional advanced materials, including polymers, semiconductors, membranes, composites, and energy materials, as well as fostering national collaboration and global stewardship of Australian science and technology.. Scheme: Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities. Field: 4016 - Materials Engineering. Lead: Prof Hao Wang
